Only five Premier League teams conceded more goals than Newcastle United last season (62) while only four clubs had fewer clean sheets (8), so Eddie Howe will want to bolster his backline this summer. The Magpies boss will go into next season with Fabian Schar, Dan Burn and Jamaal Lascelles, but he’ll need to replace […]
Newcastle United had a lot of underperforming wide-men this season, so Eddie Howe is scouring the transfer market to rectify the problem. One player he’s looking at is Dwight McNeil, but Burnley’s 22-year-old may not be the best option as he wasn’t prolific in 2021/22 either. Ryan Fraser (27 games, 2 goals, 3 assists), Jacob […]
Newcastle United were 12th in the Premier League for goals this campaign (44) and only had one wide-man who scored more than two league goals, so Eddie Howe is looking to bolster his attack ahead of next season’s push for Europe.

Newcastle United confirmed on Tuesday that Freddie Woodman left the Magpies to join Preston North End on a permanent deal, ending a nine-year stay at St James’ Park. Eddie Howe wasted little time scouring his replacement, however, with Newcastle confirming the £10m-signing of Nick Pope from Burnley on Thursday, so the Toon Army have upgraded […]
Newcastle were 19th in the Premier League when the winter transfer window opened, having conceded 42 goals in 19 games.

Newcastle United have made one signing this summer, turning Matt Targett’s loan deal permanent from Aston Villa, but they’ve yet to complete another piece of business as negotiations are proving difficult.

Although Eddie Howe has Callum Wilson, Joelinton, Chris Wood and Dwight Gayle to lead the line, Newcastle United could bring in another striker this summer – Wilson has struggled with injuries, Joelinton often plays in midfield, Wood has been short of goals and Gayle has been short of playing time.
